  I tried to reach tribal IT via the website and they never called and I found via a computer tech that my number was blocked when he tried to call me . I’m scared. Michael and Yassine are two university students who when they were students they let me look stuff up online since the browser is locked to non university students but I never accessed it without them. I found one of their numbers in my notebook and I don’t writer private data like that down. Since then I learned via my bank about signing onto Google accounts on browsers at the library and how it stores info and I wonder if my data was compromised somewhere. But the weird thing is that My friend told me about cybersecurity. He was very helpful about being a protector about that kind of thing. It was Brad who left information out of things- like the many options besides syncing . Unless that did me a favor to preserve my data sowmwhere if people have been trying to change it . But it looked already changed in a way that it was hacked a long time ago like another version and the version of emails I wrote were overwritten. My theory is that becaue I’m missing soooo much allll my Google and aol disappeared I mean decades of correspondences was surprised that public libraries weren’t as secure as private university libraries. I thought public libraries would be more secure being public. Clearing caches and protecting data on govt websites is common a govt website doesn’t store passwords on its browser

  @NotTodayEric I had a 22 year old ask me what "aol" was the other day. She looked at me like I was crazy when I described the discs that came in the mail and played her the sound it made when it connected to the internet. Damn kids have no idea what we went through.

  @dampheil @kleeposting AOL probably did the biggest initial damage to internet culture by mailing CDs to every cow-eyed ******* in America. Inviting America to the Online was a huge mistake.

  @Martyupnorth We paid for AOL for 3 months and ended up getting 18 months free. If you paid even once and then called to cancel so you could use a free trial, they just gave you another month free. Those free trials kept coming. How did they make money?

  @TreadOnThis_ @BillWiIdin @DiinamicMAGA Boomers absolutely had the technological equivalents. New cars every 2 years. AOL. A new gateway or Compaq Presario every time new RAM dropped. Big screens. DVDs. Home stereo. Waterbeds. Arguing otherwise is the most ridiculously stupid thing I've heard in my entire life

  @DavidMWeissman @FadeAwayMedia well, his creative didn’t help, but WCW was a huge casualty of the AOL-Time Warner merger.

  Should we need to pay for email? In 2006, AOL and Yahoo announced priority delivery for senders willing to pay somewhere around a penny per message, with the promise that those messages would bypass the spam filter. The diagnosis behind it was correct. Email often breaks because sending is free, and when volume costs nothing, volume becomes the strategy (hello AI outbound!). Everything built afterward (filters, blocklists, sender reputation scores) is an attempt to patch a problem that is fundamentally about economics, and not about technology. Today, the same dynamic plays out on a much larger surface. AI agents can complete forms, take surveys, open accounts, and browse sites at a scale that would have been unimaginable for a spam operation twenty years ago, and most of that activity still registers in company dashboards as ordinary human demand. What I find most encouraging about Proof of Human is that this doesn't require the previous tradeoff. There's no toll, no puzzle, and nothing for a genuine visitor to notice or solve, because verification runs continuously in the background across the whole session rather than at a single checkpoint. When a decision does get made, there's a record behind it that a team can actually inspect, rather than an opaque score they're asked to trust. The email industry spent two decades learning that you can't tax your way to trust, and that authentication works better than obstruction. That lesson is worth carrying into whatever comes next.
